Fix `syncthing-shepherd-service` failing to guess the correct `HOME`
environment variable when it's `<syncthing-configuration>` does not have a
value for the `home` or `user` fields.
* gnu/services/syncthing.scm (syncthing-shepherd-service): Change ‘HOME’
value in #:environment-variables argument.

Sometimes `syncthing-service-type' fails during startup because it tries
to read configuration files from the user's home directory:
Failure on home directory: mkdir /home/xyz/.config: permission denied
This patch adds `user-processes' to the shepherd service requirements to
ensure that `user-homes' is fired before `syncthing' tries to read data
from the home directory.
* gnu/services/syncthing.scm (syncthing-shepherd-service): add
`user-processes' to requirements

* gnu/home/services/syncthing.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.
* gnu/services/syncthing.scm (<syncthing-configuration>)[home-service?]:
New field.
Adjust 'provision' and 'requirement' depending on 'home-service?', and
likewise for #:user and #:group.
Use 'filter' + 'negate' instead of 'remove'.
* doc/guix.texi (Networking Services): Add note and cross-reference to
"Networking Home Services".
(Networking Home Services): New node.
